Distribution Network Design for Distributed Renewable Energy Sources

Zhang, Ben 23 January 2014 (has links)
Future electrical power networks should support the integration of distributed renewable energy sources, which may be contributed by individual customers instead of utility companies. Such a demand poses new challenges to power distribution network design, since the energy generation, energy consumption, and power flow all become highly dynamic. An inappropriate network design may not only waste much energy in power distribution but also incur high cost in network construction. In this thesis, we study the optimal network design problem under a dynamic current injection model. We investigate different optimization methods to obtain the optimal network structure that can better adapt to dynamic energy generation/consumption requirements and is more efficient than traditional tree-structured power networks. By predicting users' potential load in the network, network design with our method results in significant energy saving. / Graduate / 0984
